Hello Harpers!
I hope this finds each of you enjoying a
wonderful spring time and that you
continue to send your vibrational “twangs”
throughout the universe!
Plans are just starting to “sprout” for the
17th annual North America Jew’s Harp
Festival to be held again at the Bay City Arts
Center in Bay City, Oregon on July 31 and
August 1.
Check the Guild’s website
(www.jewsharpguild.org) for the latest
updates on festival information.
Denise Harrington recently emailed and
said, “The Art Center received a grant for a
new sound system and Jim [her husband]
went to Portland and bought it. BOSE, top
of the line! Great with the acoustics...”
We’re very grateful to have such talented
assoc-iates and to be able to work with an
organization that keeps improving its
amenities. It’s likely the sound system this
year will be the best ever! Thank you!
Another recent email was from Michael
Wright (England), General Secretary of the

Two snakes have twisted, it sprouts out a

mouth harp and together with it Katello that
knows how to give "the touch" and to activate it in the correct way, to give it the full
voice and make it vibrate to the rhythm of
the tarantela.
L' original instrument is realized by
Domenico Bevilacqua, one of the last

on the Etruscans & Romans with Angel
Bartoli of Antiquitates).

UNDERGROUND SESSIONS
1 through 4
Jew's Harp Trio Aubergine
reviewed by M. D. Poss
IBAN - NL36 RABO 0335 0806 69
Every so often someone undertakes a
project that is audacious in both concept
and execution. This is the case with "The
Underground Sessions" by the Jew's Harp
Trio Aubergine.
Their promotional material explains:
"The Underground Sessions obtains [sic] to
be the largest project on recording of the
Jew´s harp that is ever realized in the
history of this instrument. 21 musical
sessions were organized in the subterranean
room of a former bread bakery in Holland.
In the period of the four seasons of 2008,
the Jew’s harp Trio Aubergine has performed (and recorded) 301 improvisations,
integrally developed into 17 hours, 14
minutes and 14 seconds of an own kind
(three-voiced) Jew’s harp music."
"But only the top results would be
released in the series of four audio-CD’s in a
red,
green,
blue
and
yellow-ochre
design. The main part of the sessions
is dedicated to the three-voiced sound play
on the Jew's harp, quite an unfamiliar
ground in respect to its ancient traditions.
In principle each player of the trio used the
number of 13 Jew´s harps that is assorted
in a chromatic tone scale of one octave (from
C to c). "
The Jew's Harp Trio Aubergine are:
Janus Filiu, Phons Bakx, and Izz van Elk,
all well known 'harpers from Northern
Netherlands and all exceptional players.
They used over 60 different 'harps by
various makers totaled in the recordings
and, to my ear, explored the many qualities
of each. A few of the recordings also include
other instruments, primarily a drum but
the bulk
are just three 'harps. The
placement of each player in the stereo field
is maintained across all the CDs so you can
tell consistantly who is playing. The
recording quality is unsurpassed. Each CD
includes copious liner notes.
6
Being improvisations, each track is
something unexpected. They range from
whimsical to studied; regional to worldly;
somberesque to exhuberant. Upon repeated
listenings you will find different nuances in
each instrument and sometimes unfathomable techniques employed by the
players.
My only complaint is that they did not
vary the mood inherent within the different
keys enough and often hit the same rhythm
(beats per minute) as previous tracks. But, if
you're like me and wear your personal MP3
player while taking a walk, you'll find
yourself trumping along at a brisk pace
These CDs are an astute study into the
infinite musical possiblities to be found in
this wonderful instrument. Any and all
'harpers should covet the complete set.

GUIDE TO THE GUILD
in her own words
Years ago, I met my Bodhisattva on a
trailless mountain pass in the Sierra Nevada
Range. In 1993 he called me out of the clear
blue and suggested I meet Gordon Frazier. I
called Gordon Frazier and was invited to
attend the Second Annual North American
Jew’s Harp Festival, which was called
something else at the time. Being at the
festival was almost like a reoccurring dream.
In each dream with the same fine musicians
in attendance, I always left with a handful of
beautiful harps from around the world and
vibrational tones massaging my brain.

PHONO HARP
From the Eddie Marchant collection
Wiltshire, UK
Since 1993, I have attended most of the
Jew’s Harp festivals, often pregnant or with
a newborn. Our two children have grown up
with the Jew’s Harp and Martin NelsonHarrington, our son, has a popular You
Tube duet with Ingrid Berkhout. Elizabeth
always entertains children of all ages at the
festival and dances to the inspirational
music.
I appreciate the Jew’s harp for its
meditative qualities, unique and diverse
range of sound, small size, and presence in
many cultures. The festival is about more
than the harp, it is about those friendships I
have developed with unique and loving
people; people I would have never met if not
for that funny little instrument I love so
much.

Play the Jaw Harp is a fun and easy way to
learn how to play the jaw harp. This step-bystep mini-course by Grammy winner and
master jaw harp player David Holt takes you
from beginning to advanced levels. You’ll learn
songs and melodies, how to make cartoon
sounds, talk through it to your friends and play
catchy, rhythmic tunes.
You’ll also hear wonderful music performed
by the world’s best jaw harp players. Play along
with them to perfect your chops.
Included with this CD is a FREE Jubilee jaw
harp made for us in Austria. This high-quality
instrument is crafted from the finest spring
steel, has a bright, pure tone and is easy to
play.
PLAY THE JAW HARP
With David Holt
For years I have played family concerts of
mountain music. I figure I have played for over
a million children in live concerts. My goal has
been to entertain them with old time music...no
easy task in today's hip hop world. With banjo,
guitar, steel guitar, harmonica and a variety of
instrumental sounds I have learned to
captivate most audiences. But even with all
this musical variety, young people always
seem to enjoy the sound of the Jew's harp the
most. There is something in the sound of this
humble instrument that speaks to the child in
all of us. It speaks to our inner-twang.
We debated whether we should go to the
expense and trouble to create new packaging
and a CD version of our Jew’s harp and
instructional cassette tape package. It was
going to cost a lot and in this economy it didn't
seem like a good time to gamble, but at one of
my concerts I once again saw the kids’ eyes
light up when the Jew's harp started. Clearly,
we needed to forge ahead and get this out in
CD form. So, here it is.
Start with step-by-step instructions on how
to play the jaw harp. Then listen to this list of
